Job Description

Ted's Montana Grill is a distinctive restaurant known for its unique blend of premium quality, polished professionalism, and a cool, laid-back atmosphere - collectively recognized as the "3 PC." Rooted deeply in "The Big Sky Spirit," which serves as its cultural and moral compass, Ted's Montana Grill emphasizes integrity, quality, and community in every aspect of its operation. This vibrant dining establishment is not just another restaurant; it is a place where premium food is prepared and served with care, passion, and a commitment to freshness. The restaurant is celebrated for its scratch kitchen, where every item on the menu is crafted in small batches to ensure the utmost freshness and the richest, most authentic flavors. The presence of an on-premises butcher shop highlights the restaurant's dedication to quality as team members hand carve and grind twice daily to maintain the integrity and flavor of their beef and bison offerings.

Within this setting, the Colorado Line Cook/Prep Cook/Dishwasher roles are critical to maintaining the high standards that Ted's Montana Grill upholds. These positions are more than just culinary jobs; they represent the heart of the restaurant, where preparation, presentation, and guest interaction come together to create an exceptional dining experience. Individuals in these roles not only prepare food from scratch but also showcase their skills as part of a lively display kitchen environment, engaging with guests and embodying the company's 3 PC ethos.

Ted's Montana Grill offers competitive compensation, with starting pay ranging from $16 to $18 per hour, based on experience. The company values its Heart-of-House team members highly and provides an environment that promotes growth, teamwork, and pride in culinary craftsmanship. Benefits include flexible schedules, medical insurance, paid sick time, and a 401(k) plan with matching contributions. In emphasizing work-life balance, Ted's Montana Grill also ensures its restaurants close on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, supporting family time and quality of life for its employees. Career advancement is actively encouraged, with many managers having started their journeys as team members.
